Abstract

An apparatus for continuously contacting and then separating particles or immiscible liquids from a liquid medium has an agitation vessel (4) with inlet (2). A settling vessel (10) is disposed above the agitation vessel (4) and connected to the agitation vessel (4) via a first pipe (1) and a second pipe (8). Liquid is drawn from the settling vessel (10) through a third outlet (12) when the lower ends of both the first pipe (1) and the second pipe (8) are covered by liquid. When enough liquid is withdrawn from the agitation vessel (4) through the settling vessel (10) to uncover the lower end of the first pipe (1), gas is drawn through the first pipe and liquid in the settling vessel (10) returns to the agitation vessel (4).
